Please do not. At least make it something like nexuiz-data | 
nexuiz-data-installer. Why would I want to download a game deb and game 
data from different locations, if I can have two debs I can move to and 
from any machine? And what if upstream decides to move the files to 
another location or their server goes down? Not something I would call 
more reliable.
